Falcon flight study

Researchers in America have studied the flight and attack strategies of falcons. The study was undertaken with the help of small cameras that were mounted on the falcons during flight. Detailed in the Live Science article, the study finds that falcons fly strategically to keep their chosen prey in the center of their visual field instead of wasting energy in a close tail chase.

Hooded Talons Bird and Pest Control Services uses falcons in order to control pest birds, such as seagulls, crows, pigeons and starlings. The aim with bird control is not to hunt with the falcons, but to chase away and deter the problem birds. As falcons are the natural predators of the sky, other birds will not want to nest or feed in an area frequently visited by a bird of prey.

If you are having problems with seagulls, crows, pigeons or starlings and require bird control in Cornwall, please contact Kevin McMillan to discuss the options available to you.
